The present methodology is a green approach to access 4-aryl-7-(aryImethylene)-3,4,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-cyclopenta[d]pyrimidin-2(5H)-ones/thiones. It offers several merits such as simple operational procedures, no use of hazardous organic solvents, and cheap and environmentally friendly solid basic catalyst.展开更多
